I'm not sure I would use a Raspberry Pi to do this myself tbh - when I was using one as a DLNA server, ethernet throughput was horrific even on a 100MBit switch, so much so that I moved the whole set to something else. Wasnt that specific board or OS either.
Can't trust the results when you can't trust the device producing the results imho.
And his point is still not about whether your root permissions are accidental or not, its the accidental space between the '/' and the rest of the path, meaning you end up with 'rm -rf/' bring run, with some garbage data on the end.
The command being run is not the command intended to be run...
His point was the act does not have to be intentional - never underestimate the power of a finger fuckup... especially when logged in (or using sudo) with enhanced permissions.
So much for the mantra of "try try try again" - we failed twice, fuck it, its too embarrassing to try any more because we might be violating some bullshit that Karl Marx spouted a hundred and fifty years ago.
That would require trained professionals who could interpret the images, and simply lead to an arms race between cheaters trying to make a concealment look normal and an inspector trying to work out what actually is normal.
A real solution would be stock bikes handed out randomly at the start of a race. You would still need to ensure no collusion in the issuing system, and no ability to tamper between issuing and race start, but it would be easier than the alternatives...
The UCI have confirmed that a motor has been found, while Driessche is saying the bike is identical to her own, but actually owned by a friend who cycled the course before the event, and the bike just accidentally happened to be cleaned and tuned for her own use due to a mix up by a mechanic...
Yup, only with a Mac you fall out of support entirely - a Mac Pro released in 2006 wasnt supported by an OS Apple released just 6 years later. Runs Windows 10 fine however. Hows that for stupidity?!
If you buy something based on future development potential, you are quite simply an idiot. No, buying their GPU does not obligate them to give you anything other than the GPU itself and whatever driver comes with it at that point.
A big issue being seen by GP's today is that there has been a loss of home-knowledge about illnesses in newer generations - an illness which would have put you in bed with chicken soup, a hot water bottle and a good book 30 years ago now necessitates a visit to the GP for antibiotics (even though they don't work against viral illnesses, as any doctor will tell you) or A&E if the GP surgery is closed.
One of the quickest growing group of users of the NHS is in those under 30 - despite the UK population gradually moving to an older average age.
Why? Because newer generations have abdicated responsibility for their health and well being to the healthcare system - just as practically no one under 40 changes their cars oil or lightbulbs these days, instead abdicating their cars care to a garage once or twice a year, or Halfords when a bulb blows.
Younger generations are more focused on life itself rather than maintenance issues, and thats seen a huge increase in the use of the NHS along the way.
A&E departments are staffed independently of the rest of the hospital, so there is no such thing as an "on call doc" in A&E - when your turn to be seen by a doctor comes up, you are assigned to a bay in the A&E department and you sit in that bay until you either move on to another department (AMU for admissions, X-ray for x-rays etc etc) or receive your treatment and are discharged. You are not sent back to the waiting room to be called back through.
If hospitals gamed the system as you describe, no hospital would breach the 4 hour limit, and yet we hear about breaches regularly. So the evidence is that hospitals are not gaming the system.
Appointment at local surgery? Up to two weeks if its non-urgent, same day if its urgent.
Consultant appointment? Again, depends on urgency - same week for some things, 18 weeks for non-urgent.
For example, my wife had a stroke scare the day before Christmas eve, she experienced dysphasia which passed after 10 - 15 minutes. We rang the GP the next morning, within an hour she was in a clinic in the hospital, MRI, CT, blood tests all underway. Follow up MRI this week.
My mother in law needed a growth removing from her face - 8 weeks from initial GP appointment to post-op follow up.
I had my ears pinned back when I was about 10 years old - that took 17 weeks from initial GP appointment to op.
Wife broke her foot stepping off a curb 3 years ago - A&E visit took 4 hours, including x-rays and fitting for a boot.
As for my private option "bullshit", if the private company isn't delivering then why are you paying them in the first place? You also don't need to pay a BUPA premium in order to go private - book your own appointment at a Spire hospital, pay the fees (£3,500 for a hip replacement, £495 for a growth removal) and do it direct. What makes you think its going to be any different it there wasn't an NHS alternative?
In the UK, Accident and Emergency has a 4 hour waiting restriction on patients - if the patient has not been seen and treatment is not underway within 4 hours of them presenting at A&E, it becomes a major incident that needs to be investigated.
We do have an issue at several hospitals currently where there has been an upsurge in breaches in waiting time where A&E departments have reached capacity, but having private hospitals wouldnt help there as its a max capacity issue brought around by a step change in public behaviour rather than departments being underfunded.
No, a cold is not a valid reason to come to A&E. No, an ingrowing toe nail is not a valid reason to come to A&E. If you come to A&E drunk and need to sleep it off, you are a fuck tard because you are now blocking an A&E bed because you cannot legally be discharged.
If you are awaiting an operation, you are low risk and the waiting list is too long, then the NHS will pay for you to have the operation in a private hospital just to cut the waiting list.
My mother suffers from Chromic Lymphatic Leukaemia, started treatment within two weeks of being diagnosed in 2005, received all the drugs necessary and went into remission. Ten years on, she still has regular checkups, tests and support from the same doctors.
All for free.
Don't think that the few cases that come up in the news are indicative of all cases.
This is why I love living in the UK and will defend the NHS until my death.
Here in the UK I don't have to worry about the cost of my healthcare, and if I want it quicker or I want a nicer bed then I always have the option of paying privately anyway.
This is also why Jeremy Hunt can fuck off and keep his slimy mitts to himself.
It is decentralised, I was still able to commit changes to my repo and carry on as normal. What I couldnt do was use GitHub.
GitHub has value adds which make it a nice thing to use - its an off site repo for backup, it has a nice PR and issue handling system, it has nice metrics, it has commit hooks, it acts as a good point for CI service to integrate with automatically (alternatives being you either have to handle CI locally, manually push changes to a CI repo, or expose a git repo somehow so a CI service can grab checkins and build them).
So I couldn't push my changes to GitHub and my CI service didn't run new commits for a few hours. Not to worry, its already caught up with the back log.
Do not confuse GitHub with git - the two are entirely different. GitHub could use CVS and still have all the value adds, it would just use a shit source code management system.
In the graphics industry, technology consumers go where the performance is best - they arent going to drop performance just because the framework is open, so AMD had better be competitive on performance as well as open.
With all due respect, insurance in decent countries has no liability limit - and I live in a decent country.
As I said before, my few hundred dollars in car insurance premiums would cover me even for a $10million lump sum and $2million a year care awards (both figures made up to emphasise the point, I can find actual examples of long term payouts of a similar level if you really want - they make the news occasionally here) to a third party. Because in my country my car insurance coverage has no liability limit.
This is why I find the US auto insurance situation ludicrous - how can you have an insurance policy with liability limits on third party payouts?
Any insurance which covers a third party should not have any liability limit, because that insurance is there to make things right for that third party regardless of what it costs to do so.
I'm not missing your point, I just think its ludicrous and opens the door to fraud and issues.
Insurers reinsure their risk base with each other, which means that in this day and age no single insurer will go bankrupt from a massive claim.
I highly doubt there is a way for an individual to manage the same risk when the risk runs into millions of dollars.
And I have already said that you can self-insure through bond purchases - but thats still classed as insurance and comes with massive caveats.
When the person who has the most to lose out on through a claim failing to be paid out is not the insurer nor the premium payer, I would much prefer for the industry and government to err on the side of caution and manage the risk as a pool everyone pays into. That way, few people end up being crippled for life without due recompense.
You miss the point - the point of insurance is that the collective pays out on awards that far exceeds the premium paid by any one member - I would like you be able to prove that anyone who isnt already a millionaire could cover a multimillion dollar award against them for life long medical costs.
Oh, and you can self insure if you lodge a bond worth a certain amount, that amount being in the high six figures these days. You are still liable for the full amount yourself however, but the bond is intended to mature at a higher value.
Insurance doesnt just exist to cover the damage to your car, it exists to cover liabilities an individual could never pay.
Now I know that US auto insurance has ridiculous things like a cap on liability, but here in the UK my $350 a year covers me, my car, any injuries I sustain, any injuries I cause and any damage I cause.
So, if I hit someone and their injuries are such that they need round the clock, 24-7 medical care, specialist equipment and other costly things, my insurance will cover that regardless of the ultimate cost - insurers have covered cases in the past with lump sums of milions, and ongoing care payments in millions a year.
Thats the sort of costs a normal person could not hope to cover from their wages. Infact, thats the sort of costs a normal person couldnt cover even if you liquidated their entire estate. So if the person liable cant pay because of a liability cap, what happens in the US? The victim gets stuffed with all the costs of being crippled for the rest of their life.
Thats what insurance is intended to cover, and in sane countries thats what it does cover.
No, in April Google will pay taxes in the UK because the UK changed the law for the start of the 2015/2016 tax year as part of the Finance Bill 2015.
No one should pay more tax than required by law, and until now its been possible to have the law require you to pay no taxes. The UK did the proper thing and changed the law to eliminate loopholes - until they did that, I was fine with Google et al paying no taxes.

Yes, I would. If you can wait 4 hours to be seen, is it really an emergency?
Go in with a cardiac arrest and you will be seen straight away.
Go in with a broken nose, you wait your turn.
